You have a couple choices, AOSP and Touch Wiz. This is the forum for the 889 so any ROM is compatible. Flash away!

Id say start off with the jedi master series first, stable builds with great features. Great dev support and great user support. Alot of things to explore and customize. Im on jedi x series, which is an international build. I lose wifi calling on it, but no biggie for me. I flash other roms from time to time, but i always come back to jedi.

Vey minor differences. I made my decision based on needing wifi calling or not.

Tweaked is quite amazing. Jedis are both awesome. For AOSP, Vanilla Rootbox. My personal favorite is Tweaked. It is not nearly as popular as the Jedi series but check it out you won't regret it.

These threads are pointless. No rom is better than the next. We all have our reasons for using them. Please let's not start off this note 2 section with junk like this. Mods please review.

Yes but recommendations help. We're humans.. it helps when we communicate with others; jesus I don't get this whole control freak rule of not letting ppl post about their opinions/experiences on ROMs.

The post is not ment to see which rom is better! There are now 7 or 8 roms for our device, I don't want to flash all of them then figure out that the one I was using was best for my needs. So I wanted to know why people were using their specific rom and why because it could help people determine whether to flash that rom or not. So chill out!

That's why the dev puts the features in the op. So you can see if you want to flash. Then if you read a Page or two of the posts you can see what people are saying about it. Basically all rooms are the same at this point. Some just have extra mods or are themed. Try one... or two. Every one had different uses and preferences. So what I say is the best you may hate.

Does the S-Pen dot while hovering still show in CM? I was hoping that maybe that would be supported natively.

I would doubt it. The s-pen is a Samsung thing. AOSP doesn't support it. I THINK the guys working on a CM10 port here are trying to make it work though. I guess it will have to be some kind of CM10/Samsung Franken-ROM. lol
Been switching between Jedi and clean roms... Both are great roms. Been running jedi 6.1.2 for the last two days and have to say i love it. But i will be checking out clean rom 3.3 soon to see how it runs.
Jedi all the way.. It's a smooth and stable daily driver with everything you will need to get the most out of your Note 2
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 Jedi v6.1.2
Using Jedi X6.1.2 and have not seen a flaw.... I like to play around with different roms usually but it will take some miracle to move me off this one. Best of all worlds... using nova launcher touch wiz features and spen heavily. Happy guy here
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
I tried Jedi rom first because I do not want to mess around with glitches and want as stable of a rom as possible that gives me the features I want. I will go into a rom thread and check the date of the OP's last update. Then I jump to that date in the thread and start reading about the latest release to see what people's opinions are. Everyone loved the Jedi rom and now I do to. There is not a single thing I can find that doesn't work with it. It is fast, stable and had the multi window feature that has not been released on my AT&T phone yet. Although flashing can be fun, I don't want to keep flashing all the time, so I want to be as stable as possible. Jedi for the win.
The only thing I didn't like about Jedi was the branding text on the bottom of the notification drawer and the lock screen. Anyway to turn those off?

I don't like it too. Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1929217 make a backup!
I started with CleanROM but ended up switching to Jedi as well. Been running it since 3.1 and now I'm on 6.1.2. Very stable, great performance, can't find any excuse to flash another.
I'm sticking with stock unrooted with Nova launcher. I've spent way too many hours rooting/unrooting and flashing roms on my last two Android phones (SII Skyrocket & SIII) only to find out each rom had glitches. Stock has great battery life, works with the S-pen, and just works as it should.
That's what im doing but having a hard time not flashing or rooting !!!! I may have a breakdown soon lol

Jedi 6.1.2 is the best rom out there and i can promise you one thing, i have tried all of them but this rom is something else . go for it

Just inherited an sph-d710 just cuz...

My question is... which rom is best on this device? Maybe asking for too much but anything close to s3 and note 2 like rom would be sweet. I have an i777 on shostock3 and that rom is beast.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk 2
You inherited a damn good phone lol. The recently released jellybean leaks like FK23, FL04, and FL16 offer a close experience to that of the Galaxy S3. The home screen and notification bars are nearly the same and many features are carried over to our device as well. You have some interesting motion features to try out as well.
Honestly you can't go wrong with any. All the devs put a lot of hard work into their roms, and it shows. My personal favorite for ics is blu Kuban. As of right now I am running fk23, and have been since it's release.

Before this goes downhill...
Congrats on getting this phone:thumbup:
Now as far as best ROMs. There is no such thing as a "best" ROM. Every user has its own preference based on whether he is a power user or a casual user, whether he is into themed ROMs or ROMs with stock feel, etc.
So you are just going to have to look in dev forums, read user posts, read OPs and then decide.
I can say so and so ROM is better but thats for my taste. You are not me. And some devs may not feel good that I left out their ROM.
So take this advise and happy flashing!

[Q] Will the American Revolution HD rom work on my T-Mobile T889???

The description says that you have to have the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 N7100, just wondering if it works for my T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 2 T889. Im going to attempt to root my phone for the first time (or for ANY phone EVER for that matter) and would like to try this one out since it's the closest to the stock phone. Also, I seen alot of roms don't support the s-pen or true multitasking so this would help tremendously.

No it won't work for the T899. If you're looking for something close to stock, try Jedi Master which includes wifi-calling. If not having wifi-calling isn't a problem then I suggest Jedi X. Best way to find out what is best for you though it's to flash ROMs and try it out

[Q] Custom roms with working hotspot

Hey everyone newb here.
​I've done some searching around but from what I can tell a lot of these custom roms are ports and the hotspot feature doesn't work on majority of them. I'm on a Rogers SGH-I317M using the Paranoid android 3.50 and the hotspot feature doesn't work on it. I've read for some people it does work but lot's of other users running into the same issue as I am.
Is there a list that has been compiled of custom roms CWM AOSP AOKP that do have the Hotspot feature working?
Thanks and sorry if this has been posted anywhere.

Works on CleanROM 4.9, you should check it out. Scott makes a great rom and it would be worth a shot.

No official list....
But our devs do a superb job posting the working or not working portions of their builds..
The OP of the roms will generally tell you these facts prior to flashing...
Check their first....Then the last few pages of the threads, as this will give you a good feel for the rom status....g

[ROM][4.3] OmniROM [PRE-ALPHA][UNOFFICIAL]

This is the pre-alpha thread of OmniROM for the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (l900). More information can be found here.
This build is very bare bones at the moment. Don't let flashing this now turn you down from trying it again in the future, a lot of changes are coming soon. I would still consider this much more of a tester than a daily driver unless bare bones is your style. The rom is very smooth and fast though probably for that very same reason.
Source:
https://github.com/omnirom
https://gerrit.omnirom.org/#/q/status:open,n,z
https://github.com/omnirom-slickrick
What doesn't work:
You tell me!
Installation method:
Wipe all if coming from another rom
Flash OmniROM
Flash GApps
Reboot
This rom does not come with root by default. Flash SuperSU in recovery if you want root!
Flash at your own risk! No one else is responsible if your device bursts into flames
To try out multiwindow, go to recents and long press an app. Click add to split view and repeat to add another app. Keep in mind its still buggy at the moment
Have fun and enjoy!
First
And I just flashed this. Liking it so far. I have been on TW for a while. May have to switch.

You can always use the xposted framework to add that back.
And the rom is cool right now but pretty lacking in settings.
Will this be moving to the development thread? Where should we watch for updates and report bugs?

How do you flash an AT&T rom on a sprint phone? I'm assuming there are differences between the same rom on different devices
Just found this ROM and I'm going to try it out but I wanted to ask if it's still being develop on.
What it do Slick Rick going try this I've seen other omni roms well into development not asking for an update just curious of the progression of the rom. So far so good looking forward to more to come. :thumbup:
